Hotel do Canal in Horta
Boutique Hotel on Faial Island
Located on the main street of the city of Horta, a mandatory stop for yachtsmen and sailors, the boutique Hotel do Canal is inspired by the history and traditions of the island: Faial is the maritime point of connection between Europe and the American continent.
From very early on, Faial Island became used to welcoming travelers and making the island their home. Like the island, our Horta hotel also becomes a haven for the North Atlantic crossing. Sailboats and cod fishing boats give the theme to the hotel's design, and remind us of the island’s most recent past, seaplanes.

O hotel está muito bem situado
O hotel está muito bem situado, a poucos passos da bela Praia de Porto Pim e do icónico Café Peter’s Sport, um ponto de referência na Horta. O quarto surpreendeu pela qualidade: bem equipado, confortável e acolhedor, proporcionando uma estadia bastante agradável. Além disso, todo o hotel mantém uma forte ligação à identidade local, com quadros alusivos à vida marítima e à histórica aeronave Clipper, que aportava na Baía da Horta nos anos 30. Outro ponto positivo foi o pequena almoço, variado e de qualidade, contribuindo para uma excelente experiência no hotel. Sem dúvida, uma ótima opção para quem visita a Horta e procura conforto aliado a um ambiente de história.
